I posed this is the general photo section before I saw the ikelite forum.
I attached a picture with my problem.
I have a nikon coolpix L11 in an ikelite housing (the combo deal they had on their website
Underwater Housing for Nikon Coolpix L11 Camera
As you can see in the attached photo I have a nice halo forming. When I had this in the ocean the previous 10 or so times, this was never an issue, and if I zoom in a little, it does go away. Not sure what is causing this, one of the board members and I were at the pool practicing when I saw this. He told me he had read about this problem but could not remember where. I tried to put a cardboard and/or a paper ring inside the housing around the lense, no help, I tried to block the flash from getting inside the lense by putting a bent piece of cardboard, no help. Anyone have any ideas.
When I take a picture and look down the lense I can see some light from the flash bouncing around inside the housing.
There is a small space between the camera lense and the port (not sure if I am using the right terminology) that needs to be filled.
